Lunch Ideas to Pack for You and the Kids
Keeping It Healthy and Uncomplicated
Let’s face it. It can be a bit of a stretch to conjure up fresh, healthy, and satisfying lunch ideas that’ll charm both you and the youngsters—day in, day out. But hey, it doesn’t need to be so complicated! Here are some delightfully simple and nutritious lunch ideas.
In a Bowl – Veggie and Protein Packed Rice
Start with a base of brown rice, mix in your choice of chopped colorful veggies (think bell peppers, sugar snap peas, and carrots), and top it off with diced lean protein. A simple dressing of soy sauce, honey and sesame oil can amp up the flavor. Did we mention this is easily adaptable for picky eaters?
In a Wrap – Rainbow Veggie Wraps
Laying lots of thinly sliced veggies (the wider the color variety, the better) on a soft tortilla wrap is a sure-fire way to get in those nutrients. Add a protein punch with a smear of hummus or slices of lean turkey or chicken. Roll it up, slice into bite-sized rounds, and voila!
In a Box – DIY Lunchables
Popular for a good reason, Lunchables aren’t just for kiddos. For your DIY version, pack whole-grain crackers, slices of turkey or chicken, pieces of your favorite cheese, and sides of fruit, cherry tomatoes or baby carrots. Feel-good munching guaranteed!
